Intel's next aim: pull IBM's ailing PC unit 'inside'
Article Abstract:
Intel is courting IBM Corp. back into its 'Intel inside' program after successfully gaining back Compaq Computer Corp. Compaq left Intel's advertising program because it felt that its brand was being overshadowed. Compaq is still considering buying microprocessors from other companies despite its renewed relationship with Intel and has launched an extensive advertising. Intel's objective to convince IBM back into the program may be difficult because IBM has emphasized on building up its brand.
